You can find these blogs listed now on Blogs by Catholic Nuns.
A Nun’s Life Updates
A Nun’s Life launched a new page called How to Become a Catholic Nun. So many folks have asked me questions around this that I thought I’d pull together a page just for you! I’ll be updating the last part on formation soon.
The Vocation Forum is doing well. Vocation Forum is a place where you can explore vocations to religious life. This forum is for those who wonder if religious life is for them and for those who are actively discerning religious life. Check it out and meet others who are discerning their vocation.
Requests
If you write or know of a blog by a Catholic nun (or woman in discernment) please let me know. I like to keep my Blogs by Catholic Nuns up-to-date so you can easily find other blogging nuns. Only requirements are that the blog be updated regularly and that the blog not be entirely anonymous.
Send in your Nun Photos!! I continue to host “Nunday” on Mondays here at A Nun’s Life. We need more submissions from you! Read Nun Photos – Got em? Send em! for details. Click to see previous Nundays.

Thanks for the link, Sr Julie, and for your comment on my blog. I hadn’t originally sent you info on it as I didn’t see it specifically as a “religious life” or vocations orientated blog, but I’m grateful for your interest.
By the way, I knew (know) your IHM sisters in South Africa quite well!
I’m delighted to list your blog, Sister Macrina (if it’s okay with you, of course). I think it helps people to see the range of interests and personalities of Catholic nuns.
Very cool to know that you know my Sisters in S. Africa!
I read a blog by Sr. Katy LaFond called “Religious Life Rocks: The Adventures of One Fun Nun”

Thanks, Stephanie. I’ve got her listed! It’s so good to have a twenty-something-year-old blogging about religious life.
We have various Sisters blogging regularly on our Franciscanized World Page of our website! All are welcome to join in!
